Prayer about school and career.

[mbgb]

Hi, all.
I'm struggling with a student teaching placement I got. I'd like to change it but the school I attend has "tough" administrators in charge of this department, and this involves my entire future career. I've been struggling for a long time with one professor who is very intimidating and grades based on his like of you or his mood of the day, who also happens to be the head of the department I'm getting my degree in and teaches most of the classes I have to take. Anyway, please pray that I can follow God's will in this situation, as time seems to be going way too fast, I hardly have any "real" teaching experience, and I am placed in a grade I am not truly interested in...and I just did my clinical last semester in that same grade level, and I fear only getting job offers for that level. My husband is having to pay a lot for school, I just don't want to mess up again, like I have so many times with jobs in the past. I also got very depressed this past weekend and wanted to quit. Please pray if you can. Thank you.

Don't let fear overwhelm you. The struggles you face are for your strengthening. I have been praying for you. I pray you will have grace and peace in this matter.

Thank you silentpoet! I forgot to post that I actually decided to go with the k-5 placement I was originally assigned. It turns out it is at a really good school and I'll be working with a phenomenal teacher, so I think that is the best way to go. Thank you for your prayers. They mean so much! I just pray to do God's will most of all. God bless you!
